Despegar's reported carbon emissions
Despegar, headquartered in Argentina (AR), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. However, the company is actively pursuing climate commitments aimed at achieving climate neutrality for its administrative and commercial operations in Argentina.

These initiatives are scheduled to run from 2023 to 2025, although specific reduction percentages have not been disclosed.
As a current subsidiary of Despegar.com, Corp., the company’s climate commitments are part of a broader strategy influenced by its parent organisations, including Naspers Limited and Prosus N.V. While specific emissions data is not available, Despegar's proactive approach to sustainability reflects a commitment to addressing climate change within the travel and tourism industry.
